'Demented new wave trio Demontré will be spitting out bile through the Beelzebub hooks and Television-esque melodies.'           
Lee Puddlefoot @ Artrocker

'London's Demontré do post-punk, and they do it well. Clean, leaping bass lines support a squall of occasionally psychedelic guitar to stir up cascades of frenetic indie noise. Name dropping? Liars, Josef K, the ubiquitous Joy Division, Pere Ubu or PiL perhaps? Never mind - it stands up on its own.'
The New Thing

‘Demontré’s brooding and effortlessly cool post-punk is turning heads on London's indie circuit at the moment’
